These easy to install or remove standoffs provide added stability for every rung while allowing flexibility to avoid a variety of wall obstructions or hazards.

Example: A lower floor window located directly below designated egress window and the path of deployed escape ladder along wall.

For this scenario the standoffs on the rungs located in front of window may be removed to avoid breaking the glass. The custom placement of these standoffs above and below a window can help prevent personal injury while descending down escape ladder to safety.
